Manned systems utilization analysis (study 2.1). Volume 5: Program listing for the LOVES computer code

The LOVES computer code developed to investigate the concept of space servicing operational satellites as an alternative to replacing expendable satellites or returning satellites to earth for ground refurbishment is presented. In addition to having the capability to simulate the expendable satellite operation and the ground refurbished satellite operation, the program is designed to simulate the logistics of space servicing satellites using an upper stage vehicle and/or the earth to orbit shuttle. The program not only provides for the initial deployment of the satellite but also simulates the random failure and subsequent replacement of various equipment modules comprising the satellite. The program has been used primarily to conduct trade studies and/or parametric studies of various space program operational philosophies.
